I doubt it would be the TPS. I had a problem with the TPS sticking, causing the throttle to stick (idling along at 45 mph ) but I dont think the TPS would cause the truck to die.

Heres a site to check the TPS voltage (I set mine at around .7 VDC at no throttle): http://www.piersdiesel.com/Tech1GTPS.htm

The TPS only controls the 3-4 shift though, so I really doubt it could cause the problem you are describing.

I dont think that your tps would make your truck die, di you pull the bost line off to get to the fuel pin. if so, did you get the banjo washers back on. just a thought.

In that case you did not mark where they were when you took them off. the linkage goes on a splined shaft, when you put it back together you got the linkage indexed wrong. if I'm not wrong, you need to take the linkage back off and move the linkage towards the front of the truck one spline at a time until it idles right. be ready to shut the truck off in case you move it the wrong way to much cause it will idle high if you do. I'm not real good at explaining things, so I hope this helps. good luck.
